At a sudden contraction in a pipe the diameter changes from D, to D2. The pressure drop, Ap, which develops across the con- traction is a function of D, and Dz, as well as the velocity, V, in the larger pipe, and the fluid density, p, and viscosity, u. Use D, V, and u as repeating variables to determine a suitable set of dimensionless parameters. Why would ti be incorrect to include the velocity in the smaller pipe a sa nadditional variable?

A liquid of density ? and viscosity ? flows by gravity through a hole of diameter d in the bottom of a tank of diameter DFig. . At the start of the experiment, the liquid surface is at height h above the bottom of the tank, as sketched. The liquid exits the tank as a jet with average velocity V straight down as also sketched. Using dimensional analysis, generate a dimensionless relationship for V as a function of the other parameters in the problem. Identify any established nondimensional parameters that appear in your result. (Hint: There are three length scales in this problem. For consistency, choose h as your length scale.) except for a different dependent parameter, namely, the time required to empty the tank tempty. Generate a dimensionless relationship for tempty as a function of the following independent parameters: hole diameter d, tank diameter D, density ? , viscosity ? , initial liquid surface height h, and gravitational acceleration g.
